Right after we watched the reveal video on the 9th we went to 179's field to see what it looked like. When I saw the height of the low bar I looked at one of my team mates and said "There's no way we're fitting under that". I would probably still have the same reaction.

For me, the low bar is an obstacle that I personally knew most teams would design their robot for because "OOOOHHH WE GOTTA DO EVERTHIN'". So we decided not to. I think we would make that decision again. Even with our #tallbot we still had trouble packaging everything into what we built so kudos to all those low bar robots.

EDIT: I've been wanting to say this for a while and I feel like this is an appropriate place to say it:
The low bar is a defence, yes? Yes. So I looked at the problem as would we design our robot to just be able to damage one defence, say the Portcullis. That Portcullis design is essentially your constraint and you can't remove it, you can't work around it. It has to stay there. So we decided to not let 1 defence constrain us when there are 8 other ones that are available to take down. (I think that makes sense)
